Answer 1

It may sound silly but I love the smell of sweat with the smell of cedar or pine. My dad was a carpenter and he smelled like this when he got home from work. Come to think of it, my husband also smells like this when he's done a hard day's work.

Answer 2

Ammonia. 2 and a 1/2 years a bypass i replaced into in college doing a chemical analyze try which required ammonia, that is between the most face twisting odors you could scent! when I had to degree a particular volume of it, one massive drop of it bounced from the bottle top interior my nostril. I went right into a panic, had problem respiratory, began coughing, yet some seconds later the ammonia dissipated away in a remember of seconds. and when you consider that that day, i'm able to scent small glimpse of ammonia in random places now and back. Now that is what I call nostalgia!

Juniper Breeze from Bath & Body Works or anything rain scented. I just love the smell!

Everytime I smell lilly of the valley I go nutz. It was my first childhood parfume. Every time I smell it, it reminds me of innocense. Oh and also Sweet Honesty by Avon. I know avon is a little corney but no one has come close to making a scent like that.
